RE: Well let's spread the news: MOUNT AN SSD IN YOUR cMP !!!

Ryelands has not responded yet about what his experiences are with a small SSD he recently purchased.

That's because, for the last few days, Ryelands has been listening to another system, one he's building for a friend. The SSD, which was very easy to install, had only been auditioned for a few hours though I did finally switch over for (hopefully) good last night.

Yes, I think it sounds better though it's not one of those the-scales-fell-off-my-eyes differences that others report. Even so, for the modest £35 cost for an 8GB device, I think it was worth doing.

BTW, the PSU I'm using to drive both the HDD and the SSD is a pretty good linear design, not one of those "Granite Digital" switchers (Yuck). Whether that matters, I can't say.

I'll see how things go and, if there's anything worth mentioning, I will.
